Looking More and More Sure
The Omaha World-Herald and ESPN are reporting that Bo Pelini is the pick (just a few days after it was reported on Heavy Soul..suck it, World-Herald!).
The Lincoln Journal Star doesn't seem totally convinced yet.
Pelini and Tom Osborne don't seem to have conceded it to be true, either. I'm sure it is a 99% done deal situation we're dealing with, but something doesn't seem totally right yet, if that makes sense.
But I'm going to go ahead and say "welcome" to Bo Pelini and his family. Here's to you bringing us back to glory!
P.S.: In fairly unrelated news, apparently Les Miles is about to announce that he's actually staying at LSU, and he reportedly signed an extension sometime today. I am pretty shocked by this decision--you think he maybe had a contact at Michigan who told him that he might not get the job? So he's acting like a hero by announcing he's staying at LSU? I think that there is something to that story there...

Wish list candidates
Four years ago, Cal's Jeff Tedford was a bit of a hot name. The Detroit Free Press' Michael Rosenberg thinks he's a very viable candidate for the opening in Ann Arbor. Why not here?
And for the love of technology, would someone teach me how to link this properly. I'm trying to add a little professionalism here.
EDIT: There you go, big cat.

Welcome
Just as a quick note to all of the people coming over from different message boards. If you just want to skip down to the good stuff, scroll down to the two posts directly below this one.
First of all, Heavy Soul is a blog written by a bunch of native Nebraskans, living in and out of state, discussing sports, music, pop culture, politics, etc. It's usually all for entertainment.
However, in the case of the coaching search, we do indeed have legit sources, and have been posted about it. We're excited to see so many people check out Heavy Soul--feel free to check out the archives and see just how many man hours that have been wasted by the several contributers to this site for (usually) each other's entertainment (and sometimes the readers of Deadspin and other sports sites, as well). We've been doing it since January 2005, so you've got some reading to do.
Thanks again for stopping by, and keep checking back--we'll update the second we get anything new to pass along.
